It will recover if you let go of the controls, yes. And that is the backup
spin recovery drill: release all the controls. It doesn’t mention praying, at
any stage . . .
If you carry out a full spin recovery drill I suppose it takes about a turn to
recover, nose down. It is very benign if you hold the full pro-spin controls
with the stick centred. If you give it any aileron it tends to tighten the
spiral and speed up.
